Examples

Create directories and files

fn project_readme(project_name: &str) -> String {
    format!("# {}", project_name)
}
let project_name = "Project name".to_string();
let adr_directory = "adr";

let temp_dir = macro_files::tempfile::tempdir().unwrap();
macro_files::create!({
   temp_dir.path(): {
        "README.md": project_readme(&project_name),
        ".adr-dir": adr_directory,
        adr_directory: {
            "templates": {
                "template.md": "# ADR Template",
            }
        },
        "LICENSE": "MIT"
    },
}).unwrap();

let file_contents = std::fs::read(temp_dir.path().join("LICENSE")).unwrap();
assert_eq!(
    String::from_utf8_lossy(&file_contents),
    "MIT"
);

// Macro expands as:

//                                 })
//                             })

//     .and_then(|_| Ok::<(), ::std::io::Error>(()))

Create directories and files within a temporary directory.

This requires the default feature tempfile that uses the tempfile crate.

The macro will return a tempfile::TempDir struct, the temporary directory will lives as long as the returned tempfile::TempDir struct is not dropped (see documentation).

let temp_dir = macro_files::create_temp!({
   "README.md": "# Project name",
   "LICENSE": "MIT",
}).unwrap();

let file_contents = std::fs::read(temp_dir.path().join("README.md")).unwrap();
assert_eq!(
    String::from_utf8_lossy(&file_contents),
    "# Project name"
);
